In video games, there's something about using a chainsaw on an enemy that taps into the primal part of your brain and gets your blood boiling. Even on the receiving end of the saw, the buzzing sound of imminent halving makes for the most intense action you could ever experience. From the saw equipped rifles in Gears of War to Juliet Starling's weapon of choice in Lollipop Chainsaw, it seems that game developers will forever be willing to satisfy our desires to handle such a cruel piece of equipment. That's why for the season of screams, we've assembled a list of the 25 Best Video Games With Chainsaws. Let us know which one is your favorite.
25. Serious Sam
Because of micro fusion cell, The "P-Lah" chainsaw is geared up to cut up bad guys for a 1000 years. Maybe we'll finally get that in the next iPhone.
24. Time Killer
One of the more popular characters in this game is the chainsaw toting Rancid who is rumored to be inspired by serial killer Charles Manson. You can just imagine how that all plays out.
23. Scarface: The World is Yours
Just like the gruesome scene in the movie, Scarface allows you to use a chainsaw even without a bathtub.
22. Chainsaw the Children
You probably never heard of this browser-based game where the main object is to turn kids into chili meat with a chainsaw. There's no wonder why this one missed the mainstream.
21. Splatterhouse
Mixing Ninja Gaiden and a Texas Chainsaw Massacre movie will get you Splatterhouse.
20. Twisted Metal
If Sweet Tooth doesn't give you Coulrophobia with his ominous grin, imagine him coming at you full speed on a motorcycle, waving a chainsaw.
19. Fallout 3
It's heavy and requires the use of both hands but the amount of damage this saw does to enemies is off the charts.
18. Alan Wake
Assault Taken are huge tough guys who walk around with chainsaws. Watch your back around them.
17. Bayonetta
Hot women, chainsaws and magic. Tell Mitt Romney to put that in his binder!
16. Armedcore 5
Big Robots with flaming Chainsaws, do we really have to explain how badass that is?
15. Heavy Metal F.A.K.K. 2
It’s a sword that doubles as a chainsaw. You don't get much more intimidating than that.
14. Dead Island
The chainsaw in Dead Island wasn't the best, but it got the job done and looked damn cool.
13. Shank 2
Try performing a combo without a chainsaw and you'll quickly realize how gangster they are.
12. Dead Rising
With the many weapon combinations available, things can get really interesting. However, nothing beats adding chainsaws to everything.
11. Quake
The ground zero chainsaw borrows some elements from Doom’s except you can use it with one hand.
10. Lollipop Chainsaw
It's like The Walking Dead meets a cheesy teen drama. You can't front on the Juliet's badass chainsaw though, or how hot she is wielding it.
9. Manhunt
A cool feature about the chainsaw in Manhunt is that you're able to turn it on and off as not to attract attention.
8. Metal Gear Rising
You really don't want to make a dog with a chainsaw for a tail too happy. Then again, you don't want to make it angry either.
7. Doom
Doom’s chain rips through its enemies at 525 hits per second. How's that for effective?
6. WWE 13
It gets no realer than a wrestler in the ring with a chainsaw. Leave it to Charlie to keep it that real.
5. Resident evil 5
What's scarier than fighting zombies in a video game? Fighting against zombies armed with chainsaws.
4. Left 4 Dead 2
Chainsaws and zombies seem to always go together no matter the game. No complaints from us.
3. Saints Row 2
A diamond-tipped chainsaw makes it pretty easy to cut through any type of wood or in case of Saint's Row 2, bone.
2. Grand Theft Auto
If you played one GTA game you played them all. Everyone has their favorite weapon of choice but none is more fun than the chainsaw found in nearly every title in the bloody franchise.
1. Gears of War
Probably the best chainsaw that you can get a game. Is it a gun that's a chainsaw or a chainsaw that's a gun? It's all up to you.
